Orbe SE/Phantom: Suspension Issues? Stick with SME V. That's the arm used to develop the Orbe/Gyro.FrankC | |
Myrtle wood under TT To go even cheaper. Just go to your local lumber yard supply and check to see if they sell these. Can't imagine paying more than $2 per linear feet, if you happen to live on the west coast. These myrtle wood are produced in the Northwest states li... | |
Krell FPB750MCX versus Pass X160.5 or X600.5 You are the second person that mentioned about the bass issue in the past two weeks. (Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with that.)I had stated on the other post that owners and reviewers alike have all pointed out this is a strength with ... | |
Pass Labs X350.5 Vs. Mark Levinson ML No. 436? Ciriolo,Where did you hear that Pass amps do not have good control of bass? They have one of the most realistic bass around. Just do a search on Pass amps in this forum, and read the reviews. This has been pointed out repeatedly by reviews and own... | |
pass aleph vs x series I would have to agree with Rayhall with comparison between the Aleph Os and X350.5. Since my last post, I had upgraded my speakers to a pair of Verity Parsifal Encores. After consulting with Verity Audio to make sure that the Aleph Os has enough j... | |
Infinity Renaissance 90 or Apogee Scintilla ? Rapogee,I am glad to report that you will not need to ship your apogees to Australia for support. There's an outfit in Arizona that will handle the repairs. I saw/heard their work at RMAF and they are charging very reasonable fees to resurrect any... | |
Amp for Verity Parsifal encore I also have a pair of Encores with the latest tweeters. I am driving them with a Pass X350.5. My system was going through an overhaul, and I ended up getting a pair of Parsifals at the end. I thought the X350.5 might be an overkill for these speak... | |
Audio Research LS series...... Great Northern Sound Company is also another good choice for ARC mods. The guy used to work at ARC for something like 20 years. I've gone through LS-1, LS-3, LS-2B Mk II, and now LS-25 Mk I w/ GNSC Ref mod.I've rolled many tubes in my LS-2B, but t... | |
Verity Parsifal Symposium base Tuboo,Glad to hear your experience with Cerapucs. I'd thought about going that route with Finite Elemente, but thought they were too expensive.FrankC | |
Levinson 333 Upgrad to 436 Monoblock I dumped that 333 in a heartbeat. How long have you had the 333? I had mine for 8 years. Bought it from a dealer as an open box demo unit. In that 8 year period I had sent it back twice to replace blown capacitors. And I found out that the dealer ... | |
Rives Audio Consulting - Advice? Sorry, Streetdaddy. To get any feedbacks from Rives, you will need to download the PDF questionnaire from their website, fill it out, and fax it back. Yes, including the blank pages.FrankC | |
Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT Sounds real audio,Did you hear the Sarastros at the RMAF? I heard them there too, several times over the three day period. They sounded a little better than last year, but I don't think those Artemis tube amps were up to the task for a room that s... | |
Verity Parsifal Symposium base I have not used the Symposium myself, but had done some research prior to purchasing my Parsifal Encores about a year ago. And had some discussion with Rick Schultz at RMAF just a few months back.These are some thoughts/observations.1/ The origina... | |
Rives Audio Consulting - Advice? I contacted Rives about 6 months ago. I was planning a major remodel to my house, and would be adding a dedicated listening room. I contacted Rives and told them about my project and asked to discuss how I can incorporate their services into the d... | |
Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT Read the article on the December 2008 issue of Stereophile. There's an article on the Verity Parsifal Ovation. The article stated that you need some juice to drive these babies.My own experiment confirms that observation as well. I have the Encore... |
